Main memory
Module population
The memory modules are organized in 3 channels (A - F) per CPU. Both CPUs
have 3 channels with 2 slots each (1-2). The channels A - C are controlled by
CPU 1 and the channels D - F are controlled by CPU 2.
Figure 11: Main memory allocation
There are four modes of operation for the main memory:
●
Independent Channel Mode (maximum memory configuration)
The populated memory can be used in full (maximum 192 GB).
●
Mirrored Channel Mode (maximum security)
Only the populated memory in the 2 channels A and D (see
figure 11 on
page 32
) can be used (maximum 64 GB). The channels B and E are for
failure protection purposes only. They contain the mirrored data from
channels A and D. Channels C and F are not used.
